Horror
Call of Cthulhu (6th edition)
Sandy Petersen, Lynn Willis
Core Rulebook
The Great Old Ones ruled the Earth aeons before the incidental rise of man. They came from the gulfs of space, waged war upon one another, and then were cast down by even greater beings. Remains of their cyclopean cities and forbidden knowledge can still be found in the remote extremes of our planet. Upon uncharted islands, within dark ocean depths, under burning desert sands, locked within polar ice, miles below the Earth's crust, they lay imprisoned. But when the Stars are right they will awaken and walk this earth once more... This new edition is completely compatible with all previous 5th edition supplements for Call of Cthulhu
. Some sections of the book have been revised and clarified, and the book includes some new interior art as well as incorporating the layout from the Origins Award winning Call of Cthulhu 20th Anniversary Edition. This book is a complete roleplaying game in one hefty volume. All you need to play Call of Cthulhu is this book, some dice, imagination, and your friends.

Beyond the Supernatural RPG (2nd Edition)
Kevin Siembieda
Core Rulebook
Builds on the bones of the classic BTS game to create a modern world of horror and magic unlike any before it.
The supernatural is real. Psychic abilities and the paranormal are real. Magic is real. Yet science and authority figures dismiss them as hysteria, hoaxes and madness. However, special individuals gifted with special abilities or cursed with firsthand encounters find themselves inexorably linked to the paranormal and forced to deal with the consequences.

Shedding Some Light on Alone in the Dark

Among the scariest games of its kind
Alone in the Dark
Night was her favorite time...
The prompt for this writing challenge was the title, Night Was Her Favorite Time . . .
The sky, like black velvet studded with rhinestones, seem to reach down and envelope her in its softness as she strolled through the park. Ahead she could hear the joyous sounds of the revelers. What a marvelous idea, she thought, to have a wedding at midnight in the middle of central park.
You must Feed when Hungry...

New rules, gimmicks, and zombie templates are included, as well as a sample of play, story seeds, and an adventure.

James Lowder

On the fabled world of Krynn, Lord Soth finally learns that there is a price to pay for his long history of evil deeds, a price even an undead warrior might find horrifying.
Dark powers transport Soth to Barovia, and there the death knight must face the dread minions of Count Strahn Von Zarovich, the vampire lord of the nightmare land. But with only a captive Vistani woman and an untrustworthy ghost for allies, Lord Soth soon discovers that he may have to join forces with the powerful vampire if he is ever to escape the realm of terror.
